Cemetery FAQs

Everything you need to know about cemeteries.

Are you endowed?

Yes. We set aside a portion of the purchase of each site in a fund from which we draw interest only to maintain the property.

What markers can I have?

We offer granite plaque markers as well as upright headstones in granite and bronze. We also offer private and individual family mausoleums, as well as our main mausoleum. Our staff would be happy to explore all the options with you.

What do I have to do to the grave once I purchase it?

We have a full staff to maintain the grounds. We set aside a portion of your investment to maintain the gravestone markers.

What do I do? I don't even know where to start.

Don't worry. Whether at the time of need or preplanned, choosing a burial site can be a daunting task. That is why our friendly and caring staff is trained to help you through the process. We will guide you every step of the way.

I just want to be cremated. Do I really need a grave?

While cremation is becoming more popular, the cremated remains of a loved one can create a burden for your family and deny future generations access to a place to visit you and remember your life. We offer cremation niches and plaques which give people a permanent resting place. If you wish to scatter the ashes, we have the ability to help with this in a legal and environmentally responsible way. We also keep detailed records to give future generations information about your life.
